Kevin, I was so proud of Kyle out there at the Piedmont Combo race. He was driving like a veteran driver. And what about those KILLER reaction times?????? Dad taught him well, huh?

"And in this corner..."
![]() I heard that Kyle won first round... how far did he end up going? I know Kevin's a proud papa. Give him a thumbs up from me. Lots of second/third generation drivers at Piedmont, and cropping up in general. Shipmon, Fisher, Zimmerman, Peterson, not to mention Sloan and Carty, even though they're already veterans!. That's great to see.

Thanks Michael my dad and I put alot of work, time, and money in that car to get it where it is now. It always feels good to hear positive comments about my car. Makes all the work worth while. Now if we can only find a bracket mode and stay away from those red lights, then next season will be a blast.

yeah like the crate motor cars going .9 under only have a couple hundred bucks in them. i know mine has gone .75 under and ive spent more than enough loot. oh yeah its not a real stocker because i can readily buy parts anywhere. and not have to pay big dollars because i can only buy them on ebay or some collector who tells me how rare the heads are. besides dont some of the older big block chevys have nos heads ! and holleys. the only difference is the intakes.once again,off the shelf instead of a high dollar investment (only because the engine builder leaves it in the parts cleaner too long) still cost money to go 1.under even if its a 4 cyl. still an engine to power the car down the track.it dosent take away that it qualifys as a stocker. oh i mean a real stocker sorry!

Hello everyone I am sorry for hiding behind this name but i am an editor. I keep up with everyone i really do not see a problem with Mr. beard's post. The problem is sloan racing engines and every engine builder out there. I am sure Mr. Sloan is great with mopars and "again i am an editor" so i keep up with everyone so case in point at the world finals Mr. sloan claimed he built hudlows motor HE DID NOT he only freshend the motor. I heard it three times. HE DID NOT build bertozzi motor he only freshend the motor.I herd that twice. I do not meen to be bashing Mr sloan but this is who we are talking about. Another case is mike castellana who took his fulton motor to reher-morrison and claims reher-morrison built the motor. Now i just wish engine builders would stop claiming engine combinations they did not do. Building an engine is one thing but freshening is another. And I do recall Mr. sloan building a D/CM engine that did not make the power, tried twice I think. So mabe he needs to stick with mopars and reher-morrison to stick with sportsman motors. From the worst of engine builders to the best they all do it PS I can only post once a month, I am under contract see you in december over&out

Wow...I didn't know you could be an Editor with a third grade education.
In case you're wondering, the word "I" should always be capitialized. You should also capitialize someones name, such as Mr. Beard or business names, such as Sloan Racing Engines. And it's "heard" (as in hearing something) and not "herd" (as in a herd of sheep). It's "mean" and not "meen", as well as "maybe" and not "mabe". Learn to use some commas and eliminate the run on sentences and you might make a decent Editor when you grow up. Next time pick a more believable profession, Mr. Wilson. Like shytstirrer (spelled wrong intentionally) or troublemaker. |

And it is "You're" fired.
![]() The REAL Mr. Wilson is Father Time, or Good Ol' Mr. Wilson. I recommend you find another pseudonym. You sully his good name. And Mr. Wilson the Editor is Dale Wilson, who is also far more respectable than you purport to be. (Here's a reference, in case you need help with anything... www.dictionary.com) I posted that Sloan has done work for Bertozzi's Super Stock program. I did not say that he built his engines. Tim has specifically told me in the past that he never wanted to give anyone a wrong impression, that he freshened some stuff for Bertozzi's Super Stock program, and that Warren does Bertozzi's Stock stuff. Tim's as straight up as they come -- as evidenced by his many customers posting here. Because of those opinions and support, which comes from real people, it just makes internet trolls look stupid. Just goes to show how great a job Tim does, to raise the ire of a couple of wanna-be hecklers. LOL! >> And I do recall Mr. sloan building a D/CM engine that did not make the power Oh, would that be Chip Johnson's old Nova? That thing was stupid fast, actually... Chip kept trying to slow it down to keep from red lighting. Besides that, you'll also find a wide variety of performances out of any engine builders shop, based on how the customer wants his engine built. Oh, BTW, I won Modified at Roxboro tonight with my Sloan Racing Engines built 360 Magnum. That'd be 16 final rounds this year. Thanks, Tim!
